He considered that Moeldoko and his father, namely Solihin GP, had many similarities. Namely, both of them are TNI backgrounds and both fight for the fate of farmers.
"My father once led HKTI, and now Mr Moeldoko continues. This similarity will certainly lead to thoughts and actions to improve the welfare of farmers and fishermen in the future," said Lutfi.
Meanwhile, Moeldoko views, Solihin GP is a figure and figure who always thinks about and fights for the people.
"He is a role model who is very consistent in fighting for the people and has not changed until the current age," said Moeldoko.
The 2013-2015 TNI Commander also said that the GP Solihin was a farmer fighter who was famous for his ideas in overcoming the food crisis by socializing rice.
